Major new NHS rules mean pharmacists can treat 7 common conditions WITHOUT prescription from today
PHARMACY technicians and dental hygienists will be able to prescribe new drugs without the sign-off of a doctor or dentist, ministers have announced.Primary care minister Andrew Leadsom said: “We want to give patients faster, simpler and fairer access to the care they need, when they need it.“We want to ensure our fantastic staff are recognised for the vital work that they do, working to their full scope of practice and delivering for everyone who walks through their doors.
Nicola Stockmann, of the Association of Pharmacy Technicians UK, said: “APTUK welcome this update to legislation, recognising the value of the pharmacy technician profession. “Everyone will benefit from an oral healthcare team that runs more smoothly and uses its time effectively.”Professor Claire Anderson, of the Royal Pharmaceutical Society, said: “Enabling pharmacy technicians to undertake further services under a Patient Group Direction will increase capacity for pharmacy teams and further support consistency of services being offered within pharmacy.
“In keeping with wider discussions across pharmacy, it is essential that the accountability and professional responsibility of pharmacy technicians is clearly understood in situations where PGDs are being used.”
